Checkmate! Chess Comes to Aghamore NS

Chess has recently been introduced to the pupils in 5th and 6th Class, and we were delighted to purchase 12 chess sets to support their learning. The children are thoroughly enjoying learning to play and developing their skills.

Mr. Connaughton, who visits our school each week, is running a chess club on Thursday afternoons for pupils who wish to learn and practise further. We are very much looking forward to introducing chess to 3rd and 4th Class in the near future.

The Féile Ficheall Tournament will be held in Aghamore Community Centre on Friday, 13th February at 9.30am, and the boys and girls are very excited to take part and compete.
